Bioactivity Gramicidin A is a peptide component of gramicidin, an antibiotic mixture originally isolated from B. brevis. Gramicidin A is a highly hydrophobic channel-forming ionophore that forms channels in model membranes that are permeable to monovalent cations. Gramicidin A induces degradation of hypoxia inducible factor 1 α (HIF-1α)[1][2].
Invitro Gramicidin A displays potent broad-spectrum antibiotic activity against Gram-positive strains, even multidrug-resistant strains[1].Gramicidin A has the disadvantage of high hemolytic activity[1].Gramicidin A (0.1 nM-10 μM, 72 h) reduces the viability of RCC cell lines and affects cell viability comparable to Monensin (HY-N4302)[2].Gramicidin A cellular sensitivity is significantly altered by neither VHL nor HIF-1α expression[2].Gramicidin A (1 and 10 μM, 48 or 72 h) induces nonapoptotic cell death in RCC cells[2].Gramicidin A (0-10 μM, 24 h) depletes cellular energy and induces metabolic dysfunction in RCC cells[2].Gramicidin A (0-1 μM, 24-72 h) reduces HIF-1α and HIF-2α protein expression, reduces HIF transcriptional activity and target gene expression (24 h)[3] Cell Viability Assay[2] Cell Line:
